<P>You have to use the Samsung store app to get Instagram thx n or welcome?</P>Thu, 27 Jun 2019 01:02:22 GMTRandYL2019-06-27T01:02:22ZGalaxy S8 + Galaxy S9 not optimized for Instagramhttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/540275#M3236
<P>My Galaxy S8 and from reading posts the Galaxy S9 has the same problem, when watching Instagram stories, the screen does not adjust to the 16/9 dimensions, cutting 15-20 % of the story off and often making&nbsp; phrases, remarks, etc. not legible. Samsung claimed to have "Solved" this problem by taking the app out of full screen mode, but that is not an option on our phones. Someone please fix this, it shouldn't be too difficult and it's super annoying for what's supposed to be a top of the line smartphone.</P>Tue, 11 Dec 2018 22:43:10 GMThttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/540275#M3236wpro2018-12-11T22:43:10ZRe: Galaxy S8 + Galaxy S9 not optimized for Instagramhttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/613500#M4438

I have the exact same problem with my new Galaxy S9+ ! Instagram is my most used app and as a previous iphone only user i am extremely disappointed ! Please fix soon or I will return the phone !Thu, 22 Nov 2018 08:39:26 GMThttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/766567#M7861ninik2018-11-22T08:39:26ZRe: Galaxy S8 + Galaxy S9 not optimized for Instagramhttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/783129#M8627
<P>This isn't an issue with Samsung phones or something Samsung can fix. This is a problem with Instagram not working on all phones with an 18.5:9 ratio (I don't know about iPhones aspect ratio and they use a different software anyway, so dunno how it works there), and Instagram doing nothing to fix it. This has been a problem for a long time now, and until Instagram fixes it there is nothing anybody else can do.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Don't hate on Samsung, or android, hate on Instagram for not caring about their android users.&nbsp;</P>Thu, 29 Nov 2018 20:28:47 GMThttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/783129#M8627Elyviere2018-11-29T20:28:47ZRe: Galaxy S8 + Galaxy S9 not optimized for Instagramhttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/798975#M8958
<P>Agreed with above. Instagram issue not Samsung.

Nope, never. Still an issue.

<P>Why should Samsung go in and try to reverse engineer a single app when Instagram just needs to add black bars on the edges of their videos? You definitely wouldn't see apple try to do that, they only accept or reject apps in their app store.&nbsp;</P>Wed, 12 Dec 2018 05:20:18 GMThttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/804097#M9044Elyviere2018-12-12T05:20:18ZRe: Galaxy S8 + Galaxy S9 not optimized for Instagramhttps://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S9-S9/Galaxy-S8-Galaxy-S9-not-optimized-for-Instagram/m-p/822296#M9298
